Safety Information

To ensure the safe operation and service of the meter,

follow these instructions closely. Failure to observe

warnings can result in severe injury.

WARNINGS

WARNINGS identify hazardous conditions and

actions that could cause BODILY HARM or DEATH.

Use the meter only as specified in this User Manual to

avoid compromising the protections provided by the

meter.

Be sure to use the switch positions, and ranges when

taking measurements.

Do not use clamp meter on a circuit with voltages

higher than 600V.

Use caution working with voltages above 30 VAC

RMS, 42 VAC peak, or 60 VDC. These voltages pose a

shock hazard.

To avoid misleading readings that could lead to

electric shock and injury, replace the batteries as

soon as the low battery indicator is displayed.

MA130-en-GB_V1.0 10/16

Do not use the meter in the presence of explosive gas

or vapor.

To reduce risk of fire or electric shock, do not use the

meter if it is wet and do not expose the meter to

moisture.

Individual protective equipment should be used if

HAZARDOUS LIVE parts in the installation where

measurements are to be carried out could be

accessible.

CAUTIONS

CAUTIONS identify conditions and actions that

could cause

DAMAGE to the meter or equipment under test. Do

not expose the meter to extremes in temperature

or high humidity.

Do not expose the meter to extremes in temperature

or to high humidity.

PER IEC1010 OVERVOLTAGE INSTALLATION

CATEGORY

OVERVOLTAGE CATEGORY I

Equipment of OVERVOLT AGE CATEGORY I is equipment for

connection to circuits in which measures are taken to limit the

transient over-voltages to an appropriate low level.

Note –Examples include protected electronic circuits.

OVERVOLTAGE CATEGORY II

Equipment of OVERVOLTAGE CATEGORY II is energy-consuming

equipment to be supplied from the fixed installation.

Note –Examples include household, office, and laboratory

appliances.

OVERVOLTAGE CATEGORY III

Equipment of OVERVOLTAGE CATEGORY III is equipment in fixed

installations.

Note –Examples include switches in the fixed installation and

some equipment for industrial use with permanent connection to

the fixed installation.

OVERVOLTAGE CATEGORY IV

Equipment of OVERVOLTAGE CATEGORY IV is for use at the origin

of the installation.

Note –Examples include electricity meters and primary over-

current protection equipment

Short press to freeze displayed reading (Hicon is

visible). Press again to release the reading.

Backlight button

Press and hold for at least 2 seconds to toggle the

backlight ON-OFF.

MAX button

Press to view the highest (MAX: maximum) readings.

Operating Instructions

CAUTION: Read and understand all of the Safety

statements listed in the safety section of this manual prior

to use.

Powering the Meter

1. Turn the rotary function switch to any position to

power the meter. Check the batteries if the unit fails

to power ON. Refer to the Maintenance section for

battery and fuse replacements.

2. Turn the function switch to the OFF position to power

OFF the meter.

Automatic Power OFF (APO)

The meter automatically powers off (APO) after

approximately 15 minutes of inactivity. In APO mode, turn

the rotary switch OFF and then ON to restart the meter.

The meter can also be powered on by pressing any button

to wake the instrument.

AC Current Measurements

CAUTION: Observe CAT II 600V, CAT III 300V with respect to Earth

Ground for the Jaw.

1. Set the Function switch to the 2A, 20A, or 200A

range.

2. Press the Trigger to open the clamp jaw.

3. Clamp onto a single conductor (fully enclosing it). See

diagram below for proper clamping technique.

4. Use the indicator mark to determine the geometric

center of the clamp head (see Meter Description

section). Position the measured electrical conductor

as close to this geometric center as possible.

5. Do not allow a gap between the two halves of the

jaw.

6. Read the ACA value on the LCD.

Data Hold

To freeze the displayed reading on the LCD, long press the

Data Hold (H) button (the Hicon will appear on the

display). To release the Data Hold function and return the

meter to normal operation, long press the Data Hold (H)

button again (the Hicon will switch off).

MAX Reading

1. Press MAX to show the highest reading on the

display. The MAXHdisplay icon will appear and the

reading shown will be the highest reading; updating

only when a higher reading is encountered.

2. Press MAX again to exit this mode and to view real

time readings. The MAXH display icon will switch

off.
